So, Meghan finally appeared after what seems like forever, receiving with Harry the NAACP
President's Award.
And you're about to see all the hidden clues that they revealed, both with their body language
and their words.
Welcome back, my body language buddies!
my name is Jesús Enrique Rosas, I'm the Body Language Guy, and it would be great if you
join us by just liking this video, subscribing and hitting that bell! let's get down to it!
First impressions always matter a lot, and of course the first thing you're gonna perceive
is their general appearance.
It's not that we are superficial or anything.
It's something that is hardwired in us.
A first scan.
And this first impression was... quite good!
Meghan's blue dress was a very good choice for the award, and it's a HUGE improvement
over prior selections that did not go very well.
Sadly, Meghan's first action was putting away the award, as soon as she had it in her hands,
like she did not care much about it.
And no, that's something that you can't miss once you see it.
It's like she wanted her hands empty so she could properly give her speech to the commoners.
And by the way, why was Harry's face like he had a severe case of constipation?
I know he doesn't show much joy lately, but I think he should eat more fiber.
Anyway, Meghan's BLUE dress stands out for various reasons.
First of all it's closely related to the concept of ROYALTY, and I guess that it fits, if they
are receiving the award as "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex".
Which is a bit of a dissonance for an Award for American people, and they insist on using
the titles bestowed by the evil British Royal Family.
If you can make sense of that, please let me know in the comments.
It was interesting that the tone of her dress is the exact same blue tone of the background.
I don't know if that was on purpose, but what I can tell you is that this is a way to slim
down her figure.
It happens when there is not much contrast with the background.
That's why wearing black has always being ideal to get the same effect, especially at
night, because it doesn't have much contrast in low lighting.
At the same time it's nice the way both dress lines point upwards in a progressive manner.
Like a rising line, totally NOT inspired by Abba, and balanced with Meghan's asymmetric
hairstyle that really did very well to her face.
I wonder... where have I seen that hairstyle before...?
nope, can't remember.
But yes, this is lightyears from previous appearances, especially the unsightly red
dress.
And no matter what you are doing, how you dress is important because it can even condition
your own body language.
Meghan looked really comfortable, because there was no visible markle mask or markle
claw.
Hey, they weren't holding hands, which is really odd, and she was just grabbing his
arm with her fingers relaxed!
I think she's trying to regain the attitude and the poise that she had a while back when
she was far more engaged in charities and initiatives.
Which by the way, made me notice the photo that they used in the background for the moment
they were receiving the award.
It was a obvious missed opportunity.
They wanted to be portrayed by humanitarians, by their service, by their efforts towards
equality of opportunities in health and education... and you picture them like they are stepping
down from a spaceship in a cheesy SyFy flick?
That made me think that Meghan Versus Predator could actually be a thing.
And yes, Meghan is, as usual, breaking the fourth wall, staring right into the camera
and straight into your soul.
But well, the image that they are trying to project is exactly that, stepping down, like
'stepping down from royal duties', which Harry already tried to clear up with a word salad.
That they were not stepping down, but stepping to one side, or whatever sounds like online
salsa classes.
My guess is that they wanted to project with that image that they were in a higher, privileged
position, and they are stepping down to be more down to earth.
And it has to do with part of their speech, when Harry mentions that "I think it's safe
to say that I come from a very different background than my incredible wife"
This is the kind of verbal tactics that you use, when you don't want to say something
directly but instead, want it to be implied in the people's minds.
If you think about it, "I think it's safe to say that I come from a very different background
than my incredible wife", he's not being explicit.
He's expecting to that meaning to make sense in our minds.
Using just a bit of logic, we can pinpoint what he truly wanted to say.
Since his own background is one of massive privilege, and... let's be honest, that's
one of the few things relevant about him, then saying that Meghan comes from a very
different background, implies that she is coming from a non privileged background.
And that's the narrative that she has been pushing over and over again, but we already
know it's not true because she had opportunities that most Americans can only dream of.
This is always a bad idea, to try to disguise your upbringing to make it seem that you come
from a struggling household, just to create some kind of artificial empathy.
Because people already know the truth, that it's a facade, and it's hypocritical.
The problem is one of perspective and empathy, and if you picture yourself going down a flight
of stairs, is because we, the audience, are in a lower level than you, and you're coming
down to meet us here.
Not exactly a good plan to win your audience.
But nothing like the gem of Harry saying "we share commitment to a life of service".
I think Harry is beginning to experience presbyopia and he didn't read the teleprompter correctly.
So, what he really wanted to say is that "we share commitment to a life BEING serviced".
You know, the kind of service that helps them with the kids, or cooking, or making their
beds.
But, anyone can make a mistake.
No big deal.
One line that really bothered me was from Meghan, "We moved to California, my home state,
shortly before the murder of George Floyd".
She's trying to connect two massively unrelated events in a way that somehow relates her to
the audience.
Again, like I'm part of you, I'm half black!
And just in case you forgot, here's my mom right beside me!
And I'm going to put my hand OVER her shoulder, like I own her!
Now, that's something that noone can take away from Meghan.
It's actually really great that she gets to be such an interesting mix of races.
The problem is when she smashes it into people's faces.
Uh...?
that could be a song!
Either way, they are trying to work their image backwards.
They are starting with flashy awards and recognition... and it's no wonder that many netizens are
asking the uncomfortable question.
What did they do to deserve this award?
Then, it so happens that, in a circular fashion, they created this new award "Digital Civil
Rights", and for this, they won the "President's Award".
It is absolutely not suspicious at all that the first winner of the "Digital Civil Rights"
award is an Archewell partner.
What can I say?
Maybe Dr. Safiya Noble deserves the award, but the circumstances do not look like the
most transparent.
It's like, since we still don't know if The Harkles are going to show up to the Oscars,
they had to find a way to get their own award.
And it's not like NOT being invited to the Academy Awards is a bad thing, since, well,
their ratings have gone down faster than Harry's royal reputation.
At least in terms of execution, they receiving the NAACP award went way better than most
of their public appearances, at least in the last six months.
But the real question is always a matter of substance.
What is the actual work that you're doing to get any kind of recognition?
And that's a killer for any brand image, or personal brand.
Yes, 90 percent of success is showing up, but it's implied that you have to show up,
AND roll up your sleeves, because it won't work otherwise.
Let's see where do we go from here.
